Scalia, I Worship A Judge Named Scalia

The great man strikes again:

In a 35-minute speech Monday, Scalia said unelected judges have no place deciding issues such as abortion and the death penalty. The court's 5-4 ruling March 1 to outlaw the juvenile death penalty based on "evolving notions of decency" was simply a mask for the personal policy preferences of the five-member majority, he said.

"If you think aficionados of a living Constitution want to bring you flexibility, think again," Scalia told an audience at the Woodrow Wilson Center, a Washington think tank. "You think the death penalty is a good idea? Persuade your fellow citizens to adopt it. You want a right to abortion? Persuade your fellow citizens and enact it. That's flexibility."


Here's the deal: the Left is dead in this country. They simply cannot get a majority at the national level, and so their agenda cannot be enacted in Congress anymore.

As a result, you're going to see four things:

1. The Democrats will fight to the bitter end on judicial nominations to keep their political hacks on the Supreme Court and in the lower courts in their seats. What they can't get at the ballot box they will attempt to get at the bench.

2. The Dems will evince a renewed respect for the concept of states' rights, as they try to take advantage of reciprocity to force social change such as gay marriage through their diminishing liberal enclaves.

3. The Left will increasingly resort to voter fraud and intimidation to steal what elections they can. They will throw as many elections to the courts, where they retain a disproportionate number of political hack judges who'll do the bidding of the Democrat leadership.

4. Since Americans are too smart to adopt neo-Bolshevism, the Left will increasingly turn to anti-American international organizations in an attempt to thwart any turn back from the socialist precipice in domestic policy. We're already seeing the warning signs of this as the left wing Supreme Court justices are beginning to ignore the Constitution and the American polity in favor of foreign laws.

This is the death knell of Leftism in this country, but don't think these folks will go quietly. They worship political power, and will resist the loss of their shrunken god at all costs.
